During Longmont Startup Week in July, Jeffrey Donenfeld, investment manager with Boomtown, led a conversation entitled “That Which Doesn’t Kill You Makes You Stronger.” Out of that panel discussion we found these three takeaways that could help your startup face some inevitable challenges.

Longmont Startup Week (LSW) is the last week of July and Boomtown staff and alumni will be involved in several sessions to offer their expertise to give insight into entrepreneurship and the startup lifestyle.

That wraps up our eighth cohort! 10 incredible teams pitched to more than 250 investors and 1000 members of the community on Demo Day. The teams detailed how they are changing the way we do everything from e-commerce, machine learning, human resources, to healthtech, fundraising and fintech.
